don't worry, he'll get back to Australia in the summer and hit through the line with impunity, and all will be well. You'll be watching Toyota ads again and celebrating with the rest of the bogans.
It is the angles and decision making that are fucking him - Broad is well inside his head and he's half a second too slow to counter it.

I always wondered what happened to Travis Cloke. Turns out he's bowling 2nd change for England

Another ton for Smith. Has played about 8 or 9 cross bat shots to balls that would otherwise cannon into his pad in front of middle.
He is just at a completely different level to the rest of the Aussie batsmen right now.
Marnus Labuschagne would be earning lots of praise for his performances - except they pale next to those of Smith. -

I feel sorry for junior batting coaches everywhere
I thought exactly that as well. Can hear the conversation now:
"try and stay still"
"but Steve Smith does it"
"yes, but that is Steve F'ing Smith you unco little twat"Actually might be best that I stay away from coaching.

Made 100 more than he would have done if Leach hadn't overstepped. He may have helped save the Ashes in the last game only to lose them in the next ....
Well... 93 or so 😉
But a spinner overstepping? Jeez...
A cardinal sin. I saw Roy(?) drop a sitter of a catch in the slips off Broad around midnight NZT too, the Poms had a day to forget in the field
